AR15 sales up as much as 30% at at least one gunshop in Florida. One again gun control zealots continue to be the best firearm salesmen, or salesperson for the SJWs. It's 100% predictable, you start howling about gun control and banning the AR15 and of course sales go up. If you keep it up there will be shortages of 223 ammunition again.

The AR15s are only a very small portion of the sales. The lower receivers are the big sellers. Especially, the 80% lowers.

Most that I know build their own.

Hoarders. Same types that buy up all the bottled water before a hurricane.

The AK47 is still the most widely used gun and most mass produced gun on the planet. Somewhere, new ones are being cranked out right now.

Yep. It's the same people who already own a bunch of guns.

"Surveys show that gun ownership in America is actually highly concentrated. Only 22 to 31% of Americans adults say they personally own a gun."

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...-133m-firearms

And nearly 50 percent of the guns in this country are owned by three percent of the population, and they are the ones who are rushing out to buy more. And it's that three percent that is holding the country hostage.

I clearly remember older generations saying the same thing in the 80's and 90's, except they wanted the 50's and 60's back.

Some thing's just never change...but most things do. That's life!
